Oh poor Yozora...
You wont get Kodaka by scheming around. Just be brave and confess already...
First, Sena has overwhelmed her by leading the race to Kodaka. Now Yukimura is rising to the top by revealing herself to all the members...

I don't know about that- how much progress has she actually made? Sure they hang out more now thanks to their fathers' relationship, but Kodoka's view of Sena hasn't changed at all, and Sena's top priority is still Kobato

Sooooo, what makes Rika so much more convincing than any other person?

Spoiler for again, minor skipped details:

the scene was handled a bit differently in the novel, Rika pulled her off and said they needed to be alone because "she may have to show her some shocking footage" Anime made it seem like 10 seconds, it was 15min in the novel.

Plus don't forget, Kobato still hates her

Well i said she lead the race. Not about how near she is to the finish.
And she definitely score herself a bit with Kobato this episode.

It's about damn time that Yukimura was finally revealed. Originally, I thought they were going to leave it tour imaginations. I'm just glad the debate can be put to rest. Yukimura was waaaaay too cute to be a guy anyway.

I'm happy to see so many of Sena's flags in the anime, but I can't shake the feeling that the events are portrayed in such a way in order to capitalise on Sena's popularity, as opposed to a faithful adaptation of the novels.

It's not about actual, since up until the end of the anime, Kodaka is still much a doormat, but the tension rising in poor Yozora's own interpretation, eheheheheheh. Can't wait for the eruption.

I wonder if this is a cultural thing - western narrative focuses on explicit statements - such is the evolution of writing initially as a tool to record historical events rather than entertainment, therefore structure and clearness rules supreme. Whereas, estern literature encourages inferences, and for reader's to draw their own conclusions.

I think Season 2 is fairly faithful, much more so than S1. But just like the novel, blink and you'll miss Yozora reveals. Simple - don't expect to see her formally declare things (that's Sena). Instead, these are typically via other people's observations (mostly Kodaka, okay I admit it's hard to include too much monologue in anime form compared as the narrator). Sena tends to produce events (or flags) but Yozora produces more commentary from Kodaka (like he would notice the curl of a smile, or a frown, hard to animate I suppose), sometimes seemingly out of nowhere.

Wow, a really nice episode. Well, by really nice, I mean really funny. I haven't laughed that much during an anime episode in a long time The roller coaster scene — I'll forever remember XDD Sena and Yozora's little competition was just too funny. They are perfect for each other Get out of the way Kodaka, you're not needed here. I'm sooo shipping those two!

I hope the anime covers this and you find out, because I was laughing so hard when Kodaka wondered how Rika managed to convince her. Actually, I was already rolling on the floor by that time because of one of Yukimura's phrases said before, related to the issue (the LN readers know )

Barring the fact that this IS pretty much how it goes in the novels.

EDIT: If there were yozora flags, they're nothing compared to the sena points accrued in the novels. Sena's actually making progress, while yozora's trying to return to the past.
